Rodney Crowell - Airline Highway (Texas Exclusive Signed Split Purple and Yellow Vinyl)

Full of deep empathy, sober insights, and lively guitar licks, Rodney Crowell's new album takes it's title from a seemingly mundane stretch of four-lane blacktop that runs deep into Louisiana. It's the road he and producer Tyler Bryant drove to reach the remote studio where they recorded these songs, hauling a truckload of gear on a two-day journey that ended in swamps. One of the things Crowell looks forward to is making more music with musicians he genuinely loves. "I'm just in love with the experience now. I've worked with amazing people in the past, but I was looking too far ahead. I wanted the music we were creating to make a name for me, so I wasn't completely present with them. My ego was involved. But now my ego seems to have finally evaporated. Now it's just about the work and what a blessing it is to be able to do it. The work truly feeds me in the moment."
